How many of those COD sales were for the single player story campaigns?
If you didn't play online multiplayers you most likely didn't buy BF1942, BF2 or 2142 because single player on those games was playing against bots on MP maps only, no storyline campaigns.
I'll shut up now lol.Oh, it may also be worth noting, or fair to point out that up until 2005 with Battlefield Modern Combat 2 on consoles, that all previous Battlefield games did not even have a single player story campaigns.

The other thing I see, is that some of those sale numbers for both don't really appear to be accurate or current anyway. I mean hell some of those were repackaged and sold as bundles through out the years. battlefield 1442 complete collection (phasing out), battlefield 2 complete collection (still being sold), COD WarChest etc.
COD over all probably has sold more though.
COD in its early years really spring boarded from Medal of Honor Allied Assault 2015 inc., in early 2002, a year before BF1942. http://retro.ign.com/articles/104/1042762p1.html
And being on a modified Quake III Arena engine, some may say it started there.
Battlefield in its early years, BF 1942, BF2, 2142, were not for every one, because it was not the run and gun infantry only LONEWOFF Quake style twitch shooter that COD was/is that is very easily consumable, and now even more so on consoles.
They WERE both great games in their own right, but I pretty much have no desire for either now. Nostalgia glasses, ya I still find it enjoyable to play some of both the older titles though.I agree David.

COD and its arcade style and dated graphics makes it easier for the average person to consume.Sales doesnt mean better. The average human is pretty lame. One way to get rich is to find something that stupid people consume – because there are a lot of them.
